0438 House & Home Restore Tile Grout, 5 Fl. Oz. , White

I have that horrible old fashioned kind of tile on my kitchen counter that everyone hates, but there you go. After years of zealous overscrubbing, the grout eventually disappeared, leaving hideous black spaces between the tiles. This wasn't really a problem, because I just slid the George Foreman over about a foot or two and covered the bad part. But the grout, like my ex-husband's hairline, just kept receding. Now, I'm not one of those fanatics who use the kitchen for "cooking" and stuff like that. Even the George Foreman is decorative, not useful. I only go ito the room because I use the oven for storing sweaters. Anyway, a couple of weeks ago, I made a wrong turn off of the dining room and found myself in the kitchen again. I was appalled at the state of the grout. Okay, people who have seen my kitchen will find it amusing that I just found this one thing to appall me, but we're not discussing anything but grout right now, so back off. Anyway, I was looking up Groutering in the Yellow Pages when I suddenly had a thought (and keep the funny remarks to yourself thanks). How difficult can it be to fix this. Maybe I could do it myself! Turns out, grouters have been putting a big one over on us all these years. Grout repair is not only easy, it is fun. I sent away for the Red Devil 0438 EZ Squeeze Tile Grout, White, 5 Ounce, plus some stuff called Grout Sealer, because it said on the Grout Sealer page that I should. (By the way, don't you think it would be more fun if they called it EZ Squeezy?) The directions mentioned several tools which I do not have, but I improvised, using a screwdriver, nutpick, old steak knife and meat skewer to dig out all the old grout in the section under repair. I cleaned the counter really well, squeezed in the grout, smoothed it out with a butter knife and index finger, and let it set. Then I added some grout sealer and Viola! I had clean, white grout. Me. I was a grouter. It's been a good three weeks and, while some of the grout has fallen out, most stayed in place, and the fallen out spots were no problem to re-repair and are holding up just fine. The directions were EZ to understand and EZ to follow and just about foolproof. But here's the thing: It turns out, I enjoy spending time in the kitchen. There is a big white thing in the middle of where I replaced the tile, and water comes out of it. Hot AND cold. No, really! And I'm pretty sure it's free! Plus, if you open that bottom door on the big square ice making machine, you can keep food inside. It has shelves and everything, and the cutest little light that comes on when you open the door. There is also a fire machine, but I'm not going to mess with that. No Sir. I know first hand what the George Foreman can do to human flesh, and it only shoots fire and flames once in a while.

Excellent product. Easy to use, works as described. So glad I found this product on Amazon, it was exactly what I was needing. One note-its a nice bright white, so if you don't want white, you'll have to search for something else. I needed white though, so was happy to see this was a pure, bright white color.

The tube winder didn't work. Then one third of the way through, the grout was impossible to squeeze out. So I cut the tube in half and scooped it out, adding drops of water to maintain consistency. Why 4 stars? Despite the tube problems, the grout was incredibly easy to apply evenly. It also wiped off the tiles easily with a damp sponge. Finally, it has held up after several showers and tile cleanings. I'll never again use the powder version.

This product was easy to use and the consistency was as it should be. I saw other reviews that said it was impossible to squeeze out which almost led to me not ordering this product. It should be known that, per the instructions, you are supposed to cut the end of the tube with scissors. Anyone who has a difficult time squeezing the product through the end merely didn’t cut enough off the end...it’s user error. The easy squeeze mechanism works brilliantly. I wish these things came on the end of toothpaste and really all squeeze products!

Like many of the other reviews have stated, the crank didn't work. Not a huge deal as you can squeeze it out like toothpaste for a while. I applied it with my finger. But once yo get to about 25% left it does take some effort to get anymore out. But the product itself is good, it filled in grout lines that had faded or cracked pretty good. We'll see how long it holds up over time. Overall didn't hate it, didn't love it - not sure if I'd buy it again but wouldn't rule it out either.

I can't speak about the durability of the product because I just used it. But I was really happy with how easy it was to use. I was tired of watching my kitchen floor with these holes because the previous grout had loosen, but I didn't want to pay a fortune for someone else to do it (as I did that with my bathrooms and a couple of months after it was already coming off, waste of money) So I decided to venture in the world of DIY. Don't judge too hard, I know it's not perfect, but that most likely has to do with the fact that I had NO IDEA what I was doing, and it still came out good I think....

The grout seems to have dried in the tube. Worked the tube but only got a little out. The 'easy roll up' does not work at all, and if you follow the directions for the roll up you need 3 hands. Still does not work.

Used this grout as a touch up around tiles and it was SO easy to use! The roller on the end guarantees a uniform grout line so it is in place with no mess! The texture of this grout is also "fluffier"? so it seals into cracks well. Great as a small job or touch up grout in my opinion! Also dries very fast!
